Besides pushing articles I want to read later to Pocket I tend to use the principle "if I cannot remember the name/address of the website, I do not need to bookmark or visit it". Browsers nowadays are excellent at autocompletion which kind of supersedes bookmarks.
- dao- 7y agoYour browsing history usually expires after some time (in Firefox anyway, haven't checked other browsers but they'll likely do something similar). If you want to keep something long-term, better bookmark it. You can just bookmark pages as a hint to tell the browser not to expire them, and then still access them through the address bar, without spending time on organizing your bookmarks.
- reportgunner 7y agoI usually just download an offline copy of the page if I want to keep it long-term. (I'm talking about text data like guides or articles of course) Browsing my youtube playlist library I can see that bookmarking is not enough if the link dies after a couple years.
